Provides a high-quality and broad-based coverage of multi-disciplinary engineering.

In the modern engineering environment, large-scale engineering projects are increasingly likely to be of a highly multi-disciplinary nature, requiring engineers from diverse backgrounds to be able to work effectively as a team to deliver the outcomes. In such environments, a broader understanding of engineering, beyond one specific area of specialisation, is highly desirable and advantageous.

Developing such breadth in four-year engineering courses is a challenge as it compromises the level of specialist knowledge that is also required from a graduate engineer. Successful completion of this three-year program guarantees entry into ECU's Master of Engineering course, affording the opportunity to develop a chosen discipline specialisation building on this strong multi-disciplinary knowledge base.

Applicants from South West WA will be able to study only the first year (up to eight foundation units) of this degree at ECUs Bunbury Campus, which may include attending a short set of lab sessions at Joondalup Campus by the end of each semester. After completing these eight units, Bunbury students will need to attend ECUs Joondalup Campus to complete the rest of their course. This option is only available for domestic students living in the South West region of WA.

Why choose ECU?

It's how we discovered that the quality of teaching here is the best in Western Australia. Being rated 5 stars by our graduates for 12 years in a row confirms that.

It's also how we learned from QILT that we're Australia's top-ranked public university for student experience – 2 years in a row.

And it's how we know that we're one of the best young universities in the world under 50 years old.

So the real question is, why not choose ECU?
